Wanted to see how everyone in the community felt about the using the android navigation bar buttons vs using gesture control.
I’ve used the navigation buttons since they released on android and just recently started trying to use the gesture based navigation. It’s been a little difficult for me to adapt to it so far, but curious what others experience has been.
Nav bar, gestures are just awkward. Faster to tap than to swipe.
A navigation bar is so simple, so direct, with little room for error.
It was actually painful and annoying for me to try navigating with gestures after updating Android, to the point where I simply disabled them because someone had the right idea to make them default.
Yet, for me this was peak ->
I want physical buttons back.
Default on grapheneOS , took a bit to get used to but sooo much better and effective
I still prefer the navigation buttons. I just can’t get used to gesture controls
I use edge gestures for gesturing but I keep the 3 button on the screen just in case. I like both.
